![]() ![]() “The need for them came late in the game, and so instead of going back through the whole modelling, rigging and animation pipeline,” says Farnsworth, “we used Houdini to generate all of the extra geometry procedurally in the shot level, saving us a lot of time. Tentacles on the character Doctor Octopus were another thing that Houdini was used for, in particular to generate extra wires and geometry inside of them. When CFX was done, the webs would go through the procedural setup in Houdini and, depending on the variant they wanted, it would add spiral webs around the main core, and completely replace the eiffel with a more stylised and customizable one.” “Having this in their court was ideal,” says Farnsworth, “because of web-cloth interaction. That department had a web rig for simulating secondary motion and also added that ‘eiffel’ end-piece. To get the webs into shots, the animators used a ‘curve’ rig that would then go through CFX. The hideout and ‘wrapped up’ webs were packed with more small webs along with ‘knots’ randomly added into the structure.” Her web was much more ribbon-like and graceful looking just by tweaking a few parameters. ![]() We built on that and modified it for Gwen’s web. Mile’s and Peter’s web was very thin/fine and had a few extra spiral webs around the main core, with a graphic almost 2D looking ‘eiffel'. “Using one setup as the base, we were able to easily create unique web variations for some of the different Spider-Man characters as well as the webs in the Spider-Man hideout and the webs wrapped around Miles during one sequence. Houdini was relied upon again here, especially for its procedural nature, as Farnsworth explains. Of course, Spider-Man would be nothing without his signature webs. This is just simply not possible in another program other than Houdini.” We also had to create a few custom boolean-based tools for creating stylised patterns and cuts. We used that in combination with some minor re-timing to really create a nice ‘punch’ and accentuate the action as desired. “Using 2D animation as inspiration,” adds Farnsworth, “we also did some fun timing experiments on rigid bodies, outputting the geometry on 2’s, and sometimes switching from 1’s to 2’s or vice versa to get us a unique ‘stepped’ look that matched what the character animation team was doing. “The render side was nice and simple,” notes Farnsworth, “as we simply stored attributes for the hi-res image path, and simple things like age or alpha attributes so we could control a bit in the shader as well.” With that setup in place, the FX artists could use simple particle systems or hand-place these elements as needed, and focus on the timing and composition of the elements, without having to worry too much about rendering or the final look, since the render would match the viewport almost exactly. This is a common technique used in games, where instead of loading a specific frame of animation for every card, you only have to load a single image that has all the frames on it already and you modulate the UVs to switch frames.” “Being able to view the animations in real-time was really important to us,” says Farnsworth, “so we created sprite sheets for all the animations we were going to use. The same HDA also output a separate geometry for render. “He was able to provide us with a few explosion variations with multiple layers each, gun muzzle flash shapes, spark hit shapes, smoke, steam and flame elements.”Īt Imageworks, an HDA in Houdini was created that would allow artists to select images from the library and then view the animation in real-time in the viewport. “We had him provide as many layers as he could for us, so we could mix and match as needed, and also place things in depth for the 3D stereo side of things, too,” details Farnsworth. He provided Imageworks with a small re-usable library of 2D FX, starting with an explosion. That artist was Alex Redfish, whose Vimeo demos exemplified a style that would fit the desired language of the film. ![]() For reasons that are not fully known, the virus can reactivate years later causing shingles. After a person recovers from chickenpox, the virus stays in the body in an inactive state. Although shingles isn’t contagious, the virus can spread to others and can cause chickenpox. When it does, it can affect your facial nerves. After chickenpox clears up, the virus still lives in your nerves. Ramsay Hunt syndrome is caused by the same virus that causes chickenpox. The same virus that causes chickenpox also causes shingles (herpes zoster). In addition to the painful shingles rash, Ramsay Hunt syndrome can cause facial paralysis and hearing loss in the affected ear. Image Credit - Centre for Disease Control/Dr. Chickenpox is a very contagious disease caused by the varicella-zoster virus. To read the full paper visit Nature Communications This suggests that the RNA transcript may play a key role in determining whether the virus is actively replicating or remaining dormant. ![]() The team found that the latency-associated transcript stops expression of a gene that is needed for viral replication. The virus is reactivated in around 30% of people as shingles, which causes a painful rash and the potential for blindness, stroke or debilitating pain. Our discovery provides an important step forward towards control of this virus.” Professor Judith Breuer, lead author of the study, said: “It’s been more than 30 years since VZV latency in human nerve cells was first described, and ever since then, researchers have been trying to identify the factor that causes the virus to remain latent. After an individual has chickenpox, the virus goes dormant in dorsal root nerve cells. The results are significant as previous studies have been unable to identify how VZV latency works. Shingles is a reactivation of the VZV, the same virus that causes chickenpox. They found that active genetic material is still present in nerve cells.Ī research team led by UCL and Erasmus University has shown that, in 90% of adults worldwide, there is one strand of RNA transcript within the varicella zoster virus (VZV) that remains active in nerve cells after recovery from chicken pox. ![]() Shingles results from a re-activation of the virus long after the chickenpox illness has. Researchers have solved the mystery of why the virus that causes chickenpox and shingles can remain dormant for decades. Chickenpox is usually a milder illness that affects children.

A couple things here and there, but not a whole lot. “In the last couple of years, you may not have seen a lot from me. There was a season in Amaya’s life where he spoke and preached instead of acting in front of the camera. “The way I resolve it is by understanding that what God is teaching us is that our first ministry is our family.” “Some people say, you know, the order should be first your family and then your ministry, I kind of always wrestled with that,” Amaya shared. This is fitting for him because he always puts his family before his career. “ love them, absolutely love them.”Īmaya has played several roles where he was a father, including MOM’S NIGHT OUT with Kevin Downes, Sean Astin and Sarah Drew. “I was born to be a girls Daddy, and I didn’t know it until my first daughter was born,” Amaya beamed. The absolute best way to wake up on your birthday!Ī post shared by Robert Amaya on at 2:48pm PST ![]() Now the couple have two daughters, Sophia and Angelina. Instead, he could just be himself.Īmaya married his high-school sweetheart, who’s also an actress, in July 2004. However, the dream changed Amaya’s need to perform for the Lord. On top of that I knew how to perform when I went into churches.” “As I grew up, I didn’t do drugs, you know, wasn’t with girls, I was clean on the outside, I was beautiful, beautifully clean, and nobody could ever like point a finger at me. “At a very young age, I learned that Christians are supposed to look a certain way, act a certain way, behave a certain way, you know, and so I became what I like to call the poster child for Christianity,” Amaya said. Two months later, the Kendrick Brothers cast Amaya in COURAGEOUS.Ī picture from way back! #courageous #snakekingĪ post shared by Robert Amaya on at 4:28pm PDTĪccording to Amaya, although he grew up in a Christian home as the son of a pastor, his early days in the Christian culture left him with a need to perform rather than have a personal relationship with Jesus.

The “speed” knob is also quite useful since it helps the notes “stick” a little longer, reducing the pitch correction jumps, and helping them sound more natural. In some cases, this ends up creating some issues, so make sure to play around with these settings to see what happens. One interesting feature is the “preserve formants” knob which, in theory, helps you preserve the tone and characteristics of the vocal track while shifting the pitch. This plugin is specifically designed for vocals and the pitch-shifting can be smoothly adjusted from minus 12 to plus 12 semitones. Graillon2 takes the second spot on this list because of how well it performs and how easy it is to use since it is a very visual plugin that has a display where you can see the notes that are being played as well as where Grallion2 is snapping/correcting them to.

Our sense of smell, numbed by the assault of so many asexual, proper, chaste and innocuous scents, and our instincts, repressed by so many “thou shalt nots”, will be overwhelmed by these mini-bombs of sensuality that speak so clearly to our intimate animality. Studies conducted by a German research team found proof that hedione activates a region of the brain responsible for pleasure and heightened libido. The Carnal Blends collection is made up of two uncompromising fragrances, both rich in hedione (methyl dihydrojasmonate) - named from the Greek word “hedone” meaning pleasure - a floral compound to be found in the heart notes of jasmine and magnolia and that brings great airiness and light to a composition. Such is the history behind Carnal Blends, the collection from Initio that dares to engage with fantasy-fuelling ingredients, carnalnotes, committed, powerful and distinctive couplings, and celebrates transgressive fragrance compositions with the power to awaken pleasure, to stir physical attraction. And then a team of researchers at Bochum University in Germany recently proved that certain fragrances, containing certain key compounds, possess the power to activate regions of the brain linked to libido.
